How do you guys celebrate a victory when you go home? Parties? BBQs?

How do you approach the first round fight? Your opponent is undefeated at 10-0 but he hasn't faced someone of your caliber. He's got a ground game. What challenge do you think Yokoi will present to you?

He's a good opponent because he has skills on the ground, like me. He moves well. He's fast, even though he's a big guy. I think he's a good opponent. He's technical.

I will do my best and I think we will have a good match.
